abstract

The reduction of 4d matter-gravity theory to $S_2$, $H_2$ or $R_2$ leads to effective 2d dilatonic gravity with dilaton coupled matter. Spinors give the exceptional example of the theory which is conformally invariant in 4d as well as in 2d, after reduction. We find 4d and 2d conformal anomaly induced effective action (EA) for Majorana spinor. It is expected for some time that s-wave EA (i.e. the one for dilaton coupled 2d matter) is some (s-wave) approximation to 4d EA. We compare such 2d and 4d spinor EAs on the same gravitational background and argue that s-wave EA indeed qualitatively corresponds to no higher derivatives approximation for 4d EA.

  1. Unveiling horizons in quantum critical collapse

    gr-qc 2025-09 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Semiclassical quantum corrections in critical collapse yield a finite mass gap and transition from classical Type II to quantum Type I behavior, providing a quantum enforcement of weak cosmic censorship.

  2. (Anti-)evaporation of Schwarzschild-de Sitter black holes revisited

    gr-qc 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Within the Bousso-Hawking effective action, the Schwarzschild-de Sitter asymptotic is excluded, which undermines earlier anti-evaporation results that used the Nariai limit.
